Well, under the circumstances, i.e. you don't have any background,
plane, or sky in your images, (the sky is useful for reflection
purposes, and diamonds need this externally as well as internally),
you couldn't really tell which is *actually* the *best* one. The
bottom one looks the worst if we're just considering the images shown
as they are. Try some of the above, and you should see a big
difference.

I find the outer ring rather too sharp, but maybe it's only the
point of view.
the second one is looking like an old 80's computer made picture...
How was your diamond made ? CSG or mesh or ????
Please learn in which group to post too!
(povray.binary.programming is not for pictures,
neither is povray.binary.scene-files !)

I prefer the first. In the second, you lose the details in all those
reflections and refractions.<br>

Please do not send posts in HTML.
As for image - very nice, add some ground there to nicely show the
photons refraction :)
